RDA TIGER is pleased to launch the final series of webinars dedicated to cross-fertilisation and knowledge-sharing among RDA Working Groups from different domains. Each of the three sessions will focus on a specific theme, giving WGs the opportunity to present their work, exchange insights with peers, and explore shared challenges and opportunities for collaboration.
We welcome anyone interested in the activities, topics, or expected outcomes of the RDA Working Groups to join us. Each webinar will include space for questions and discussion.
Webinar #1 – Making mappings FAIR
The first of the series took place on Thursday 27th November at 02:00pm UTC and this RDA TIGER Cross-Fertilisation Webinar focused on mappings and crosswalks.
Bringing together the Harmonised Terminologies and Schemas for FAIR Data in Material Science and Related Domains WG, FAIRification of Genomic Annotations WG and the FAIR Mappings WG, the webinar considered how to make mappings FAIR.
The groups presented their outputs, including mapping outputs and recommendations for FAIR mappings, and in dialogue with one another approached the question of FAIR mappings and crosswalks. All community members interested in mappings and crosswalks, regardless of discipline, were invited to join this cross-fertilisation webinar. There was time for exchange and discussion.
The entire session was recorded to allow those who were unable to attend to catch up on the content and to provide a reference for the topics discussed.
The full recording of the webinar is available below:
A future instalments of the series will take place in December 2025 on the topic of Repositories, trustworthiness and certification.
